Messing and Lehr

July 1

Wednesday @ 8 p.m.

Duration: approx. 1 hour; no intermission

 

Improv legend Susan Messing and comedian/improviser John Lehr (who is also Messing’s husband) perform live at Dad’s Garage for one night only in this one-act laugh-tacular!

 
 

Susan Messing: founding member of Chicago’s Annoyance Theatre, seasoned performer at iO and Second City, and decorated educator and director.

John Lehr: actor, comedian, web series creator, and improviser—and Messing’s husband.

 

Together, Messing and Lehr are A Delightful Couple—an improvised comedy romp to wherever they want to go! This incredible show is a double doozy of improvised tour-de-force: the Dad’s Garage ensemble sets the stage with short-form improv scenes with these stars of improv before setting Messing and Lehr loose for an evening of long-form hilarity.
